Vishwaroopam’s fate in Tamil Nadu to be finalised soon

It is known that Kamal Haasan’s
much-awaited film “Vishwaroopam” is yet to hit the screens in Tamil Nadu though
its release date has passed. The film had been banned by the government of
Tamil Nadu since some Muslim outifts claimed that the film would hurt the
sentiments of the community. Fearing the loss of peace and harmony, the
government decided to stop Kamal Haasan’s film from being screened for about
two weeks.

To this the actor had said, “I have
been ruthlessly used as a vehicle by small groups who seek political profile.
Icon bashing is a great way to be noticed when you are not one yourself. It is
happening again and again. Any neutral and patriotic Muslim will surely feel
pride on seeing my film. It was designed for that purpose.”

This not only agitated Kamal Haasan but
his fans too lent their support to the actor. With Eid and Republic Day having
been over, the government has now decided to expedite its decision.

Justice K
Venkatraman and a few more members of judiciary watched the film on the 26th of January. The film has been
privately screened only for them. They will now pass a verdict on the film on
the 29th of
January. The verdict of the judges will make sure all the more if the film will
get released in Tamil Nadu.

On the 26th of
January, the film’s screening started around 1:15 pm. The official people who
marked their presence were Justice K Venkataraman, Navneedakrishnan who is
Tamil Nadu’s Advocate General and Aravind Pandian who is the Assistant Advocate
General.

Kamal Haasan’s sibling Chandra Haasan
and lawyer named P.S Raman were also a part of this screening that had been
held at a reserved studio.

The film “Vishwaroopam” is on war and
its misfortunes. Due to the protests the film’s release was restricted until
January 29th. The actor will soon
be meeting the government officials and find solution to this scenario. The
High Court of Madras will soon pass its verdict on the matter.

Numerous people belonging to the film
fraternity, like superstar Rajnikanth made his support felt to the actor.
Filmmaker Bharathiraja, Parthepan, and Ajith Kumar too opposed the court’s
order against this movie. The film released in Kerala and in some parts of
Hyderabad on the 25th of
January.

Tamil Nadu government will soon be
taking their decision. The film has been produced, directed and written by the
actor Kamal Haasan himself. The film stars Rahul Bose, Andrea Jeremiah, Pooja
Kumar, Jaideep Ahlawat and Shekhar Kapur in substantial roles.
